This is what our nation has done

Recently so many of us sat dumbfounded in astounded bewilderment at the news about the Connecticut school shooting.

How sad, especially when those poor little bodies were being moved to the morgue.

How could anyone do such a horrible thing?

After some reflection, it occurred to me that this is clearly another signal that our country is in a moral free-fall.

Let us step back out of the trees and look at the forest for a minute.

With atheism fast becoming the de facto religion of the country and with our public schools forbidden to teach children morals, integrity and the basic rules of religion upon which our country was founded, this is only the inherent consequence.

Thou shalt not kill is a lie, because 3,500 little pre-born babies are killed every day, not by a crazy gunman but by their own mothers and with impunity.
